The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


Waste Fuel Disposal

Have a fuel container lying in the rear of your premises with unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to many private and commercial properties in Shropshire for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally.

Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a number of drums in a garage, assuming that we can reach it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a significant situation to address in an automobile - specifically in modern day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank can contribute to idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not addressed properly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both circumstances pretty simply.

Be aware however that so long as the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the previous one is going to be thoroughly wet and unusable.

I'd had a terrific day fishing during my afternoon off and was feeling pleased the next morning as I set out to aid a young family who were vacationing in The Hem. They pulled over after putting diesel into their beloved Peugeot 508, and were roughly half an hour's drive away. I got there at their position and laughed while I listened to the lady telling her hubby off for turning out to be so confused. "Exactly how could you actually find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she told him. I tried to explain that this takes place quite frequently in Shropshire and that it's nothing to stress about, but he all the same got his ear bent by his better half. Unlucky boy. Anyways, I extracted all of the wrong fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave it some proper fuel. While watching them drive down the road I waved so long and pondered on what my missus would ask me in the event that I made the very same error... I'd under no circumstances hear the end of it!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car The Hem

Now I am not actually very excited about doing the job on Sundays, and 2 weeks ago was the same. I'd only just come away from the wife and kids following a magnificent Sunday roast prepared by the wife, and I was off to assist a man after he put the incorrect petrol in his dark blue Seat Exeo. He was stationed in The Hem and so it wasn't long before I got to him. Just as I pulled up at the rear of the car and stepped out he explained to me "Praise the Almighty! I had my attention on stuff and did not grasp that I'd put diesel in my petrol car. Is it likely I caused any kind of damage as a result of driving it?" I explained generally there probably should not be any problems and that I would get the wrong fuel drained right away. Naturally I drained the fuel from the car and put in some appropriate fuel, and then yet another pleased customer was able to continue his trip without the need for bother. The gentleman could hardly stop thanking me, and that is what makes operating on Sundays in Shropshire just a little bit less painful in my opinion!

Wrong Fuel Doctor The Hem - Fuel Rescue The Hem

A woman living in The Hem contacted us as soon as she had managed to get her misfueled car to her office. She had filled the wrong fuel in her diesel customised Cadillac XLR-V and, like many people before her, assumed that she could just fill up her vehicle with diesel and it'd be alright. The engine was spluttering and then it stopped when she arrived at the entrance of her work. We quickly went to work on the fuel drain after she called and had it sorted in an hour or so whilst she was working. She came outside later on and thanked us stating, "I'm very glad you repaired my vehicle."

How to find out if I put the wrong fuel in my car?

If you’ve just filled up at a petrol station and the cars starts to act a bit strange you might start to wonder if you accidentally put the wrong fuel in it.

Well, there are a few things to can check that will be able to tell you:

  1. How is the car responding? There are some very common misfuel symptoms which can be a good indicator of wrong fuel:
    • Loss of engine power – can feel like the car has run out of fuel
    • A lot of smoke (more than usual)
    • Engine coughing or starting to splutter
    • Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
  2. Look at your fuel receipt. It will state clearly if you filled up with diesel or unleaded. If you don’t have the receipt, you can often return to the petrol station where you filled up and give them the date and time (and pump) where you refueled and they will often be able to give you a VAT receipt.
  3. Smell it. Diesel and petrol have very distinctly different smells. Anyone familiar with the motor industry should be able to help you with this. Or you could even get another car to park alongside and smell the fuel caps of both, comparing them to determine what the fuel type is.
  4. Call us to come out and assess the car. In the majority of cases we will be able to tell if the car has been misfueled before beginning work on it. If we discover that the vehicle does not need a fuel drain, you will only be charged a call-out fee.
